[QUOTE="RockyRogue, post: 331214, member: 7185"] Mastula....I'm 24 years old and left UPS 6 months ago. I have a bachelor's degree and finish a Masters in about 6 weeks :happy2:. I applied for management and was turned down not once, not even twice but THREE times. Ya know why? Because I have a family member in management on the other side of the country. Read stupid policies much? Its not worth the wait to become a full-time supervisor at UPS. I read a number somewhere--probably here on BC--about the divorce rate but I forget what it was now. From experience working in two different regions for Father Brown, I can tell you that a large proportion of supes and managers have at least one failed marriage in their history. I know one guy I worked for in the Midwest had two failed marriages and was engaged for the third time. I don't know if that one failed or not. Another full-timer I worked for in the Midwest told me, "If I could do [B][I]one[/I][/B] thing differently, I'd never have dropped out of school 10 years ago to work here full-time. It ain't worth it, kid." I was stunned speechless-a rare thing to be sure--for a good minutet. He nodded and walked away when my mouth was hanging open. Your hubby can and should take that UPS experience elsewhere. I always get a look of respect from recruiters and HR personnel when they see the UPS entry on my resume (and I wasn't management!). FedEx [B][I]loves[/I][/B] their former UPS'ers, by the way. I thought about taking a job there but decided against it due to the distance, etc. -Rocky [/QUOTE]
